title: Ayenbite of Inwyt
text: The Ayenbite of Inwyt —also Aȝenbite (Agenbite) of Inwit; literally, the "again-biting of inner wit," or the Remorse (Prick) of Conscience is the title of a confessional prose work written in a Kentish dialect of Middle English. Rendered from the French original, one supposes by a "very incompetent translator," it is generally considered more valuable as a record of Kentish pronunciation in the mid-14th century than exalted as a work of literature.
